may day 2006 - maria

Me and Maria went to Reclaim the City's May Day party at Odenplan in Stockholm. There were more than 1200 anarchists, lefties, party people, hooligans and lots of good music. All watched over by at least 200 policemen. Crazy! So why do I celebrate May Day? Because of both the Haymarket Riot back in 1886 and the fact that it's a part of the great old pagan holidays Valborg and Beltane. May Day rules.
